Fiberglass Design Basis
Pipe Design
There are three main parameters that define the wall thickness of
aboveground products:

o Pressure Class
o Stiffness Class
o Vacuum Requirement (Buckling)
Independently, each of the above parameters will define a value
for the structural wall thickness. The highest of all three will be the
structural wall thickness of the product.

Gas Pipeline – Sonde to Kondensatschacht

Project Description Gas Pipeline (Wet Oil-Gas Mixture) 1996

Client Gaz de France


Location Bramberge- Germany
Application Underground GRE pipeline conveying dry gas, instead
of steel. Dry gas contains mixtures of BTEX and CO2,
which is very aggressive to the environment. The line
fulfills the German WEG-Regulations for gas transfer
lines and accepted/witnessed by the local
“Bergambt” authority. Pressure Design 27 Barg.
Preussage Line Pipe Project

Project Description Transfer Line of Sour 1998

Client Preussag Energy Lingen


Location Sheerhorn- Germany
Application This underground installed Wavistrong pipe line was
chosen to replace an existing steel pipe system, which
was heavily corroded. Since sour gas is very
aggressive, the local authorities decided to make use
of high allow steel (Chrome vanadium) or alternatives.

Techno-Commercial Review
(Capex & Opex)
CAPEX and OPEX Savings.
CAPEX Fiberglass
Pipe Material Cost Better weight to strength ratio compare to other
conventional Material
Installation Cost Offers fast Installation
Civil Cost Due to superior light weight ratio of fiberglass pipe,
the civil cost can be reduced drastically
Power Pump Procurement Due to better Hydraulic Performance, the pump
specification can be reduced.
Lifetime Design
OPEX Fiberglass
Maintenance Cost Free Maintenance Cost
Hydraulic Performance Offers fast Installation
OPEX - Hydraulic Design
Fiberglass Hydraulic Roughness Coefficients stay the same throughout the design life leading to long-term
savings on energy requirements and low life-cycle cost.
